Hmmmm, details eh? Okay, let's see...

I run a G4/733 with 640 in the slots. 17" LCD and yes, I'm glad to be free of the monster CRT.

Age: Old enough to worry about mortgages and other trappings of adulthood. Young enough to waste time playing these addictive games.

Employ: Printing by happenstance, prepress specifically. It isn't glamorous but hey, it passes for respectable!

Game stats: Kinda earlier to say, but I tend to like the non-weapon FFA or Duel servers. Would like to get into CTF when my skills improve. Don't have a fave skin, although the custom Yoda is pretty cool. I go by Yandros on the pubs. I'll assume the [MA] tag if invited, and do you proud! (Well, I'll try to avoid shameless TK'ing-fair enough?)

mrchicken · 2003-05-25 3:40 pm

Hey, I'd be interested, but my latency sucks but out of all the games I've played, I think JKII plays the best with the lag! (although I do much better w/o it)

I use my brothers 1Ghz emac with a wimpy 128MB RAM. (he hopes to get more soon).

I'm not sure what my fav character is yet, if yoda wasn't so big(anyone know how to get him smaller?) and wasn't so ugly looking, he might be it...

Also, how do you get your skins to work mutltiplayer? does the host have to have the skin also?

I like saber duels and ffa (pretty much the only kind I've played) w/o forces and only saber. (Jump is nice)
How do you only allow certain forces when hosting?

Well, I'd love to play, although I'm not sure how often I can... Probably not till a week cause of finals.

mrchicken · 2003-05-25 3:42 pm

OH age...

I'm 15years old, a freshman in highschool.

Leonard Nimoy · 2003-05-25 10:31 pm

Im using a brand new 1Ghz eMac (as mrchicken said in the last post) with a low memory of 128Mb's cry . I fall in the teen section, (im 13 if you want to know) and my favorite game is Jedi Knight: Jedi Outcast. Ghost Recon is also very cool. I like reading the Enders game book series, the harry potter series is about as good, the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galixy is also cool. And also, my favorite character in JKII is Yoda.

JediKnightChewie · 2003-05-27 8:23 am

Good taste in books big_smile

ViralDoctor · 2003-05-27 3:08 pm

I've only read the HHGTTG, which I read out of order a long time ago. What is Enders Game like?

mrchicken · 2003-05-27 6:55 pm

I have decided my favorite skin is Indiana Jones cool
Yoda Sucks tongue

NightCougar_37 · 2003-05-27 11:35 pm

Oh I got Indy skin. Nice one. Ya know if we get a server we should get to have our own skins on there tongue . Hate using the reg skin when I got a awesome Qui-Gon skin just sitting around big_smile .

Jeapadea: You tried Recon online yet? wink

I do Recon online whenever I get a chance. No one around to play JKII with, might as well play Recon tongue . Lot of GR servers are doing mods now so it might be tough if you dont have them. If you can find a copy of Island Thunder for PC I can tell you how to port it to Mac (only prob is, need access to a PC & CD-RW to do it...or you could get someone to burn you a copy). IT adds a lot of sweet game types and weapons to Recon. Definatly worth the time. Only real bug is the weapon sounds for the bad guys, astonishingly loud, even from far away eek .

Recon online is awesome! Much more fun than sigle player. I have seen Island Thunder on a couple servers and I was wondering about that. Sounds Cool cool

Yea, whenever I get on Gameranger seems like nobody's on there playing JKII also...

I will be able to get on a lot more starting Thursday, School will be over!! YAY big_smile

Leonard Nimoy · 2003-05-28 11:37 pm

Yes, I have tried Ghost Recon! It was cool. I still like JKII better. Enders game is cool. You should read it. Yea Ghost Recon has way more games on gameranger, but I play JKII online anyway (inside the program, not in gameranger)

Ry-Gon Wan · 2003-06-10 10:08 am

Hello my name is Ryan.
I am a mac addict as well as a star wars addict.
I am a member of the obsidian dragons clan (OD).
However, I believe that I would enjoy the company of other mac users.
I use tex quigon mostly and i play with the name Ry-Gon Wan.
As my name suggests i might also be interested in playing with a young obiwan.
I also use a green lightsaber, I think that it is kinda wierd how all the mac people choose green.
If this clan is willing to accept me I will drop my OD and wear MA proudly.
I am also mostly concentrated on the duel aspect of the game however the clans compete using the other games most often.

Ry-Gon Wan

NightCougar_37 · 2003-06-10 3:25 pm

Cool, thats the same Qui Gon skin I use too smile . Ive been wondering if anyone would try to make a young version of Qui Gon but ive yet to see it. Maybe the new Jedi Academy game would help in that creation.

Not all Mac folks take green tongue . I use blue big_smile .

Leonard Nimoy · 2003-06-12 3:52 pm

I dont use green... I use blue most of the time, and then I use that orange one, (I think its orange) sometimes... I guess I have to admit that I do you green sometimes, but thats only when I feel bored. twisted

ViralDoctor · 2003-06-12 5:22 pm

I like orange lightsaber.

NAG · 2003-06-12 8:18 pm

Purple is pretty.

Leonard Nimoy · 2003-06-16 3:08 am

red is cool, like blood
Now I have read the second and i'm three-quarters through the third book of HHGTTG. the first is still the best... except in the third book, when arthur dent is called a jerk, and he starts flying, that was cool.

vashthestampede · 2003-08-05 10:45 pm

I'm 16, and online I'll probably go by [ma]vash from now on. I use a purple lightsaber, and I would be proud to join the clan. I'm kinda a n00b, but I'm not bad by any means.

Phydeaux · 2003-08-31 9:45 pm

My Name is Jonathon Warden... {hi, Jon!}

My name on Jedi Knight though, is Phydeaux, herein now is [MA]Phydeaux.

I run a 1ghz G4 with 1.25 gigs of ram and a 300GB total hd space. As an extra bonus, I use my multimedia wheel to play. Whoopee!

I'm the rebel with a goofy hat skin with the purple lightsaber. Beware! smile

TheIronMonkey · 2003-09-12 5:56 pm

Hi, you can call me whatever you like (monkey, monkey dude, Iron guy, ummmm, or you could just call me fred or bob. or else danny. just kidding. or give me a name.) but I like to have different names at home and online. so. I'm 13, and I have an G3 indigo 500mhz imac 256 ram, so the lag might be me. I'm not too good at dueling, so I usually just run at a person clicking and going left right etc with a jump every once in a while. um. So I like weapons, not a ton of force, team ffa, capture the flag, and dueling (even though I'm bad at it.) uh.... tell me if you want anything else.

Androo52 · 2003-09-27 3:32 pm

Hey,
I'm Androo,
I play Jedi Knight 2 and i used to play warcraft 3.
I got a blue dalmation imac, and i rarely lag. I also buy MacAddict magazine sometimes, if that helps at all twisted
Yeah, i can do some photoshop, plus HTML and CSS coding.
I am 14, and i am one of them Canadians, eh? I enjoy long walks on the beach (the sunny beaches of canada), and yeah. That's all.
I've already went into the server, and i think its awesome. I met a few of the members, and they seem great big_smile
I would really like to join, cuz i am a proud mac user, and i hate being in a Clan where everyone is PC and they just annoy me and say macs suck. Well they don't!!!!
I love to use Darth Maul with a green saber

I was born and raised by Monkeys. Nah i wasnt, sry.

That's all! Am i in? am i? PLEASE!?

ckm · 2003-09-27 3:53 pm

Hi Androo!

You're in...just check out the other thread you posted in below. wink

Welcome to [MA]! big_smile

TheIronMonkey · 2003-09-27 3:57 pm

I didn't know there was something else you had to do to join MA, Androo. When I joined, (15 days ago) I just posted something here and started playing and put the [MA] in front of my name, and then started playing. I made myself fairly apparent at first just so people would get to know me and know who I am. But that's all I did pretty much. And btw you played pretty well today. Glad you're here.

Hi IM. We're not really formal here...but I'm sorry I didn't greet you sooner....welcome aboard! big_smile

I just like to point out the "don't be a jerk" thing for everyone, just so we're all on the same page, so to speak. wink
